Hi,

Last week was the first time I had used a 12F629 and I wired the chip
wrong (why is ground on pin 8?). This didn't kill the chip, but the only way
to program it now is to first erase the chip and _then_ program it. I have
some more 12F629's on order, but aside from this it seems to work fine.

If I don't erase the chip I get verification errors as well. But, an erase
before the programming causes the verification to succed. I've no idea why.

Matthew.
